| Central wavelength repeatability |
± 50 pm |
Central wavelength accuracy is subject to variations in fiber NA from batch to batch |
| Illumination profile |
Gaussian / Tophat |
Default Gaussian or Tophat profile. Option to define other profiles |
| Fiber Outer Diameter (excl. coating) |
125 μm |
standard feature, option to accommodate smaller and larger OD fibers e.g. 400, 80, 60, 50 and 40 μm |
| Fiber coating |
Acrylate / Polyimide |
The fiber needs to be window stripped over a minimum of 20 mm at the desired FBG location. |
| Cycle time |
<30 s |
Cycle time defined as the total amount of time required to write a single highly reflective FBG. Includes fiber positioning, automatic mask se-lection, exposure and undocking of the fiber. |
| Available phase mask slots |
16 |
Newly purchased phase masks can easily be inserted manually |
| Phase masks included |
4 |
By default 4 high quality Ibsen phase-mask are included in the NORIA |
| Default recipes |
4 |
By default the NORIA has 4 prede-fined recipes allowing the end-user to manufacture 4 different FBGs in the C-band with approximately 5 nm wavelength separation |
| User friendly software interface |
|
The software includes a recipe editor allowing the end-user to define FBG recipes. |
